Re: Working with DataArea in COBOL


Amjad.

First of all, I would check to see if the COBOL-program is expecting parameters in the call.  You mention DataAreas, they are usually read in a CL-program, whitch  can call a COBOL-program.

Hi,
 I'm totally new to AS/400 environment.I have searched through the mailing
list archives for
information regarding my problem but couldn't find a clear answer.
 I have a Sun server running Solaris 7 with SNAP-IX installed and configured
to set an Lu6.2
connection to AS/400 server.I managed to test the connectivity with the
AS/400 server and
it's working ok.The problem is that I have a small cobol program that runs
on AS/400 and
I need to pass some parameters in/out to/from it from my SNAP-IX server and
when I check
the AS/400 log,I find that the cobol program was called but get an error
saying
"missing parameters".I think the problem is mainly related to the way the
cobol program
is dealing with the DataArea.
 I appreciate it if someone can provide me with the typical way a COBOL
program should work
with the DataArea and whatever pre-steps on the operating system level that
should be done.
 Thanks alot in advance.
 Best Regards
 Amjad Zamil < amjadz@sts.com.jo >
